I have noticed that there are a few different reactions to the current Pandemic
1) There are people who were immediately affected and reacted quickly.
2) There are people who have researched and watched the news and have become experts at the spread of the virus, the rules, and the theory behind flattening the curve and they have spread the word.
3) There are people who have resisted the news and changing their beliefs and are trying to coast through this and not allow it to affect their life.
We get several opportunities in life to build a stronger foundation, to dismantle old beliefs, to find courage, and to learn critical thinking skills.
But it’s not very often that everyone in the world goes through it together.
You will be frustrated.
You will be angry.
You will grieve.
You will learn.
You will become someone new
“When you can’t control what is happening, challenge yourself to control the way you respond to what is happening. That is where your power is.”
This quote isn’t new. As a matter of fact, I’m certain you have heard it several times before. I’m also certain that you have grappled with its meaning and what it looks like in your life.
The deeper we get into this Pandemic the more it will affect you. It is stripping layers off of us as it threatens our freedoms. It is tearing down old and outdated structures in our lives, and is it challenging our beliefs.
I want to remind you to keep choosing how you respond.
